The ancient Mesoamerican peoples were amazing to come up with the nixtamalization process for making corn nutritionally available for humans. A process that has fed and keeps on feeding millions of people from the poor to the very rich.

La combinacion es muy rara para mi pero los hare para probarlos! Y una pregunta cesar si le agrego habanero a la mermelada de peach quedaria bien?

Does any dry corn could be used for this or only specific plant type? Is calcium hydroxide pure or it has some additions? Where I'm from you can only buy yellow dry corn that's used to feed horses and calcium hydroxide that can only be purchased as 95% pure slaked lime that's used to kill weeds in gardens

Awesome video! Very helpful indeed Thank you 🙏

hey good luck guys corpus needs more food scene stuff

Awesome video, I will make a video of my own and tag you. Thank you for spreading the knowledge

If during the sorting process you were taking out the dry kernels. I am a little confused here... aren't they all dry? Just saying. This was an exceptionally well done instructional with lots of detail and clear demonstrated techniques. Thank you. I subscribed and 'liked'.

The sign you did it correctly is when it puffs up on the comal

👍👍🍖🍗🌮

A mexican manufacture said to not wash after nixtamalization. He just drain. I wonder if just drain do not et if too alcaline.

great video ,please will the corn tortillas stay soft or will the harden up when they dry.? Also can you make a video of how to make Taco shells from the same corn you made? thank you.

La única patronsita ❤

Where do get thw corn. I have not seen anything like that at a store.

What a great interview!!!

Can you use fresh maize instead of dried and soaking?

Definitely one of the better vides out there for corn tortillas.

Feed only the special people in ur life making these tortillas lol Super video ty 😍💯

No mesa for javi...

Do you think I would have to rinse the corn if I used fresh corn?

@10:21, well for centuries, the nixtamalized corn was ground using a “metate”, made out of volcanic rock. I don’t like using a metal plate molino because of the potential chipping of the plates, finding their way into the dough. @13:21, I have the same tortilla press. It is well built and will last a lifetime. A little disappointing when you cooked your tortillas. You forgot to mention some key points. You got browning on one side that almost looks like a crèpe; I’ve never seen that happen to a tortilla. Also, you only turn the tortillas twice and after the second turn, you press with your finger tips to coax the tortilla to puff up. The trapped moisture in between turns into steam, causing it to puff. That’s the sign you did all the previous steps correctly, including the temperature and cooking time on the first side.

Holy Shet! It's Mexican Pauly Shore!

I hate scallops

This is amazing! Thank you!! I am halfway around the world and very inspired to make my own tortillas with this process. I found Calcium Hydroxide through a lab supplier and hoping I won’t die :) Do you have any experience using non-American corn?

Is that grinder the same a a regular grain mill?

Thank you for this recipe!! I have a couple of questions: Where do you source the Cal from? Can I buy the limestone somewhere and grind it into a powder? Or is it sold in grocery stores? What else can I use besides a hand grinder? A mortar and pestle? A food processor (if so, what speed?)

GO PACK GO

I love her connection between Crayons and fabric. I’ve always had a passion for both. I can’t live in a pastel world. Everything has to be as colorful as Crayola Crayons.
